did I ever tell you that time when I was out here and somebody told me
somebody you know I was looking for an acting class
and this actor goes oh you should go to this acting class right and I go over
there
and uh you know I audit the class and I'll tell you it was weird like it was
definitely a weird
vibe right I'm sitting in the class and they would say like okay does anybody
at the beginning
class does anybody have any news somebody raises their hand and I go this is
the 90s so these tv
shows are going to be old and the person raises their hand and what's your news
I just booked an
episode of JAG and then the whole class like ridiculously loudly starts
cheering like
whoa like fucking clap on their hands like ridiculously fucking loud and I was
like
all right well what was that all about right and then somebody else what do you
say
I booked a two episode arc on uh on friends and then everybody fucking going
nuts
so I'm thinking in my head why are they cheering so overly loud and I was like
oh I get it I get it most
acting classes people get competitive and they get up you know your victory is
my loss type of shit so
they're just like we're gonna be overly positive this feels weird but whatever
it's an artsy thing and
it's always gonna be a little weird so then the person goes um we have a couple
of new people here auditing the class
and they go we just moved here from fucking new york city please welcome bill
burr and they did the same fucking ridiculously loud clap and I'm like my face
literally turned
like I was embarrassed my face turned red this is when I was old billy shy boy
um and uh so during the break you know and then you know that people did some
scenes and the actors were good and
everything so I was like all right make they're a little weird whatever but the
acting's good
and the t the guy teaching the class is fucking one of my favorite actors this
is this is all right I can get past this shit right so then I I um
you know there's the break in the middle and I go to meet
you know the person to sign up for the classes and they just kept going like
okay this is a very special place
okay you know we have our own parking
um you're gonna be safe here we have our own security and everything that
this guy was saying was always our own like our own in-house
and there was just something weird about his vibe and so I was trying to break
the tension and I jokingly said I go jesus christ I feel like I'm joining a
cult
and he sort of looked at me
and he didn't laugh and I was like
uh all right sorry and then we just continued and I watched
oh I remember too the uh the acting teacher in the middle he goes what'd you
think about the beginning of the class
the uh cheering was that uh
was that too much
it was all fucking weird
so
as luck would have it
I ended up going down to the laugh factory that night and I ran
this another comedian that was also trying to act
and I was telling him the story and he goes what's the name of this place
and I told it to him and he goes jesus christ bill he goes that's scientology
and I got all fucking weirded out I was like oh my god
oh my god thank god I didn't drink anything you know I got all fucking scared
or whatever
and uh
they just kept calling me
hey you coming down this week
you know because I'm a dumbass I gave my phone number they just kept fucking
like jehovah's witnesses
they just kept calling
and I finally was just like yeah listen I'm
I'm not going down there anymore
and the guy I remember I still remember he goes oh we lost you
it's yeah yeah yeah yeah you lost me like you fucking ever had me you bunch of
weirdos
um
you know why can't scientology be normal
like the catholic church where they're fucking raping children and then moving
rapists around for fucking alone
it's not the religion
it's the rapists
um
so that was my one experience where I almost uh
not really joined a cult
it's a religion
I know a lot of people don't want to admit that
scientology is a religion but it is a religion
and they're like oh this guy he just fucking made it up
it's just like
yeah
what is that teacher
somebody just made up catholicists
they just
all of them
they're made up
um
that's just my opinion
it's my opinion
I think they're all fucking man-made
uh
you know
I think part of it was good
where they were just like
all right we got to come up with some sort of like
invisible guy
that you're going to answer to
because if not
what's going to stop people from just being
complete animals down here
then they came up with laws
it's really amazing with this podcast
how much shit I just start to talk about
as if I've read up on it
now I'm going to pass the information on to you
then they came up with laws
is that what they did Bill?
I don't know
I have no idea
um
Thank you.
